Hey everyone. I recently bought a factory refurbished Jackson JS32 King V: https://bit.ly/2GN9ai9
It really does not stay in tune at all, even when not using the whammy bar... The strings go flat when the whammy bar is pushed down and they go sharp when pulled up, sometimes not even every string detunes at the same rate.
So I decided to take a look at the knife edges, and even though the factory found nothing wrong, one side was pretty flat in comparison to the other. I tried to file it and lube them with vaseline but it's not working so I just want to get a higher quality Floyd Rose.
I need the measurements of mine but the problem is I have no idea what exact model it is. I looked on Jackson's site and plenty other ones and all they say is "Floyd Rose® Licensed Jackson® Double-Locking Tremolo". I tried measuring it myself and everything seems to measure well in comparison to OFR and Gotoh, except for the 2 side panels where the bar sticks out and it says "Jackson by Floyd Rose". Every single other model is 2 millimeters longer than mine, so I'm not sure it will fit...
Can anyone help me with what floyd rose would fit the guitar? Thanks!
